KING Of GIFS
I dated a girl for 2 years in high school that had a Cosworth Vega
(Her dad owned the chevy store)
That thing would scream and handled like nothing I'd ever driven before I tried everything I could to tear that thing up it was bullett proof

This '72 Vega was originally green. I swapped the engine for a 350 and put a 12 bolt rearend under it, notice the dual exhaust. It was bad!

I bet that would be worth something now. car shows out here are outrageous.

I bought a '69 Vette next, I practically gave away the Vega for $500. No full frame so the body was twisting. He sold it to a kid that ripped the rear end out of it doing burnouts the first week. The guy I sold it to said he saw it going down the road on back of a wrecker with the rear end strapped in front of it.

In 1974 I test drove a 1970 Mustang mach1 with the 428 cobra jet motor. the guy wanted $1200 for it. It scared the hell out of me it was so fast.

i did not get it. got a 69 VW bug instead.

I know , I know........

A one time friend of mine hasn't talked to me in over a year because when he bought a Mustang convertible I asked him how come he got the girls model?
